These cookies are so simple to make. I think after reading the reviews I made them too thick, but boy are they yummy!! I plan to make them for my Dutch family this year and hopefully they will like em.5 stars

These taste great, but I found that they were really delicate, almost too flaky, and the almonds on top flaked off.4 stars

I tasted these at a bake sale and had to track down the recipe! They are wonderful. My husband is Dutch so I'm glad I can finally make something for the family besides sugar cookies!5 stars

I used one 11" 1/2 x 17" cookie sheet for this, divided the dough into four parts to make it easier to press with my fingers to spread to edges of pan. I cut it into 64 smaller pieces, this way those on a diet to still have a taste. This was a good thickness and made a nice chewy texture. Rave Reviews and requests for the recipe. My parents are Dutch immigrants and this will be a tradition for my grandchildren, to be baked annually for family and friends. Thank you for this recipe.5 stars

My first grade daughter needed to take some Dutch cookies to school for an assignment on studying cultures. This seemed like a good one to try on short notice. Glad we did! The cookies taste great and cook up well. Nice and simple. Now we just need some history to go with it.4 stars

I have been making these cookies for over 30 years. I first learned the recipe in Girl Scouts in elementary school. My friends and family all enjoy these special treats.5 stars
